How the land functions and what causes challenges for the land. Some lands are operating at ten percent capacity. <!--more-->Some people think they are doing well, but their land is only operating at forty percent of its capacity. I pray in the Name of Jesus that you will get a hundred percent from your land. So, what causes problems for land?<\/p>\n<p>The first thing that causes problems for the land is <u>Sin<\/u>. Sin directly affects the land. The deception, sometimes, in fact, I have had Christians say to me, &#8220;But Pastor, we have been doing this thing and God is still blessing us. It is grace all the way.\u201d Repent before the heavens shut. There is a time when God will ignore some things. But if you continue in sin, you cannot say that grace should abound. That is what Paul was saying in Romans 6. Sin has always and will always cause problems for the land. Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/116\/PRO.14.34.NLT\">Proverbs 14:34<\/a>). It does not discriminate either.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, the sin can be so much that the land will take action against the inhabitants. The land that is supposed to be blessed and be a blessing to the inhabitants can actually take action against them because of sin. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/1\/LEV.18.28.KJV\">Le<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/piture-seed.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-31073 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/piture-seed.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"359\" height=\"201\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/1\/LEV.18.28.KJV\">viticus 18:<sup>25<\/sup><\/a> \u201c<em>And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and <strong>the land <u>itself<\/u> vomiteth out her inhabitants<\/strong><\/em>.\u201d (KJV, emphasis added). God was punishing the land because of the people&#8217;s sin, and the land was so upset, \u201cWhy am I the one receiving punishment for these people\u2019s sin?\u201d So, what did the land do? The land itself vomited the inhabitants. Another will not take your crown. On the day of your joy, another person will not be sitting there. This is one of the mysteries of land.<\/p>\n<p>Your land will cooperate with you, you will eat the good of the land your land, you will thrive and prosper in the Mighty Name of Jesus.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/111\/2KI.2.19.NIV\"> 2 Kings 2:<sup>19<\/sup> <\/a>\u201c<em>The people of the city said to Elisha, \u201cLook, our lord, this town is well situated, as you can see, but the water is bad and <strong><u>the land<\/u><\/strong> is unproductive<\/em>.\u201d (NIV, emphasis added).
